Electricity consumption is rising each year and reaching extremely high levels, so a decision was made to reduce household electricity use by having homeowners commit to lowering consumption by 10-30% over one year. However, getting public commitments and changing routines to reduce usage will be difficult and require a high effort of constancy in gathering monthly consumption data.
